Component System not running after adding component data back

Unity Engine

Wondering if someone could help me out.

I have a GameObjectConversionSystem with live link that create an entity and adds a component tag “TagBuild”

....
                var e = this.GetPrimaryEntity(data);
                var tag = new TagBuild { };
                this.DstEntityManager.AddComponentData(e, tag);
....

and a componentSystem that uses that entiy then remove the tag

....
            Entities.ForEach((Entity entity, ref TagBuild tag) =>
            {
                 // do stuff ...
                 
                // remove TagBuild
                EntityManager.RemoveComponent(entity, typeof(TagBuild));
            });
....

When i ran the game I get the expected behavior , the Component system runs once since it removes the tag.

But when I change something on my game object while the game is running I see the GameObjectConversionSystem , creating the entity wit the tag but my Component system does not run. It look like when I remove the tag componet the component sys never runs again. What im i missing here.

Are you sure that your next entities with TagBuild in the same world?

Yea I can see them in the default world. I ended up dropping the tag components and used a SetFilter. Seems to work

Thanks for the reply

I keep running into jobs not executing after I change something on my game object, how do I check if an entity is in the same world.

for example Test only runs once but SetTiles will keep running after I change a value on my game object. This is driving me insane.

        // TEST
        [BurstCompile]
        struct TEST : IJobForEach<PlanetSizeComponents>
        {

            public void Execute([ReadOnly] ref PlanetSizeComponents ps)
            {
                DebugInfo();

            }

            [BurstDiscard]
            private void DebugInfo()
            {
                Debug.Log("<b> <size=13> <color=red>Info: PlanetCreateMeshSystem : TEST.</color> </size> </b>");
            }
        }
        /// <summary>
        /// 
        /// </summary>
        // ToDo : [BurstCompile] Not supported with EntityCommandBuffer
        struct SetTiles : IJobForEach_B<TilesBufferComponent>
        {

            public EntityCommandBuffer.Concurrent ecb; 
            [DeallocateOnJobCompletion]
            public NativeArray<Entity> eTiles;


            public void Execute([ReadOnly] DynamicBuffer<TilesBufferComponent> b)
            {
                DebugInfo();

                for (int i = 0; i < b.Length; i++)
                {

                    Entity e = eTiles[i];


                    ecb.SetComponent<TilePositionComponents>(i, e, new TilePositionComponents
                    {
                        Position = new float3(b[i].PositionX,
                                               b[i].PositionY,
                                               b[i].PositionZ)
                    });

                    //ecb.SetComponent<TileIDComponents>(i, e, new TileIDComponents
                    //{
                    //    Id = i
                    //});

                }
            }

            [BurstDiscard]
            private void DebugInfo()
            {
                Debug.Log("<b> <size=13> <color=green>Info : PlanetSetTileDataSystem : SetTiles 1.</color> </size> </b>");
            }
        }
//...

        protected override JobHandle OnUpdate(JobHandle inputDeps)
        {
            //TEST
            inputDeps = new TEST()
            {

            }.ScheduleSingle(this, inputDeps);


            inputDeps = new SetTiles()
            {
                ecb = ecbs.CreateCommandBuffer().ToConcurrent(),
                eTiles = qTiles.ToEntityArray(Allocator.TempJob)

            }.ScheduleSingle( qTileBuffer, inputDeps);

In EntityDebugger - easiest way.
